This Is Why is the sixth studio album by American rock band Paramore, released on February 10, 2023, through Atlantic Records. It is the band's first album in nearly six years

The conditions of pandemic times serve as a backdrop for the new record, released after a five-year hiatus. Now two decades in, Paramore currently consists of Hayley Williams, Zac Farro and Taylor York. 

Having faced loss, grief, disillusionment and revelation, this return is a declaration of a new skin for a band so good at shedding them in the public eye. But for a world hell-bent on erasing the memory of the last three years of strife, Paramore approaches hard times with a refreshing sense of self.

Estelle Clifford: Paramore - This Is Why

Disability can be something you’re born with, something that develops slowly, or something that comes about suddenly, and while many people take on the challenge of caring for their disabled loved ones, it can be challenging to know exactly what it means to be a caregiver.  

Kiwi filmmaker Jon Earle has created a deeply intimate documentary that captures just that – a story of endurance, identity, and family life under sustained pressure. 

Filmed almost entirely by Earle himself, featherStrength covers the more than a decade Earle has been raising his daughter, who was born with profound developmental disabilities requiring intensive 24/7 care. 

It captures the medical uncertainty, isolation, and the toll caregiving can have on relationships, work, and mental health, and has just won Best New Zealand Feature and Best New Zealand Editing at the Doc Edge Festival Awards. 

Jack was joined by both Earle and Karen Miles, the CEO of Parent to Parent, a not-for-profit support organisation for families navigating disability, to discuss the film and the journey so many families face caring for their loved ones.

Kevin Milne has just returned from a week-long trip to the Garden City and found himself rather impressed with the experience. 

He told Jack Tame it’s not the Christchurch he once knew – it's a brand-new glittering, uber cool replacement.  

And with how much he enjoyed himself, he had to recommend anyone listening to consider a holiday or long-weekend stay in the city.
